Cross-equatorial winds blowing from south of equator have started to turn smartly off east coast of Africa to become south-westerlies carrying monsoon moisture from the seas. In due course, these will precipitate monsoon initially over Bay of Bengal, followed by Laccadive Sea and adjoining south-east Arabian Sea off Sri Lanka and Kerala coasts.
India Meteorological Department (IMD) expects the monsoon to advance into the South Andaman Sea and adjoining extreme south-east Bay by Tuesday next. European Centre for Medium-Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) has said monsoon-carrying south-west winds may pick up speeds of 36-54 km/hr over the next two to three days over the Bay, well beyond the threshold of 15-40 km/hr.
The European agency predicts winds will hold on in this manner at least until May 20, not just over the Bay but also the Laccadive Sea and the south-east Arabian Sea, which host the two other major onset spots off Sri Lanka and Kerala.
A US forecaster has predicted a potential rain cover for almost the entire country from this weekend into mid-June, punctuated by a burst of concentrated rain over Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and adjoining Rayalaseema in Andhra Pradesh from May 19 to 28. Another US agency says it will not be surprised to see an advance circulation popping up over the Bay to pull in the monsoon current.
Meanwhile, pre-monsoon systems continue to make merry over the mainland with a train of western disturbances creeping in from the north-western border. On arrival, they split up into elongated weather-making troughs criss-crossing the country, or as offspring cyclonic circulations elsewhere, propagating typical rough weather associated with season.
They have helped further reduce rainfall deficit for country as a whole to just -7 per cent as on Thursday. Regional deficits are confined to -28 per cent over East and North-East India and -24 per cent over North-West India, expected to come down further in coming week. Central India (+79 per cent) and South Peninsula (+47 per cent) have posted rainfall surpluses.
No heat wave warnings are in force thanks to the presence of a western disturbance and potentially an incoming one, and offspring troughs and circulations with associated clouds, rain, thunderstorms, lighting/hail, and high winds. Deficit-ridden North-West India and East and North-East India may benefit most from rain and thunderstorms next week.
